Tips for Making It Perfect

  4. Add extra cheese on top before baking.
  5. Let dough rest 5 minutes before scooping.

General Information

Keto biscuits became very popular as a low-carb alternative to traditional bread and biscuits. Almond flour is commonly used in keto baking because it is low in carbohydrates and high in healthy fats and protein.

These biscuits are great for:

  • Keto diet
  • Low carb diet
  • Gluten free diet
  • Diabetic friendly baking
  • High fat low carb meals

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use coconut flour instead?

Not directly. Coconut flour absorbs more liquid and would need recipe adjustments.

How many carbs are in one biscuit?

About 2–3 net carbs per biscuit depending on size.

Can I make them dairy free?

You can use dairy-free cheese and coconut oil instead of butter.

Why are my biscuits crumbly?

They may need more butter or egg for moisture.

Can I make them as drop biscuits?

Yes, this dough works perfectly as drop biscuits.

Conclusion

These Keto Cheddar Garlic Biscuits are soft, buttery, cheesy, and full of garlic flavor — and you would never guess they are low carb. They are perfect with soup, dinner, or even breakfast and are one of the best keto bread alternatives you can make at home.

If you love almond flour baking, you should also try almond flour pancakes or keto flatbread next.
